【Abstract】With the gradual opening of the electricity sales market, distributed energy trading is becoming an important research topic. However, it is not easy to design practical energy trading schemes in distributed scenario. In particular, known distributed energy trading schemes do not address the security of transaction data and the maximization of benefits among all the participants. In this paper, we propose a distributed energy trading scheme based on consortium blockchain and game theory. In our scheme, a peer-to-peer trading platform is constructed to realize direct transactions among all the participants by the property of decentralization in consortium blockchain. The direct transactions greatly reduce operating costs of energy trading, and at the same time, the security of transaction data can be obtained by the cryptographic techniques such as digital signatures and hash functions associated with the underlying blockchain. Moreover, we design an energy transaction matching mechanism by game theory in our scheme. In the matching mechanism, we construct a game model among all the participants and design an equilibrium solving algorithm, which are the key techniques to realize the maximization of benefits among all the participants in energy trading. The security analysis and experimental results show that our scheme can realize the best transaction price and quantity in the transaction matching and has high security in distributed energy transaction scenarios.
